A celebration of the life of the acclaimed comic book storyteller through his work as well as interviews with fellow creators. Will Eisner (1917–2005) is universally considered the master of comics storytelling, best known for The Spirit, his iconic newspaper comic strip, and A Contract With God, the first significant graphic novel. This seminal work from 1978 ushered in a new era of personal stories in comics form that touched every adult topic from mortality to religion and sexuality, forever changing the way writers and artists approached comics storytelling. Noted historian Paul Levitz celebrates Eisner by showcasing his most famous work alongside unpublished and rare materials from the family archives. Also included are original interviews with creators such as Jules Feiffer, Art Spiegelman, Scott McCloud, Jeff Smith, Denis Kitchen, and Neil Gaiman—all of whom knew Eisner and were inspired by his work to create their own graphic novels for a new generation of readers. NOTE: The cover is a high-quality photographic reproduction of Eisner''s original art. The design intentionally reveals tape and other stray markings that are part of the artist''s process and reflect the age of the artifact that was photographed. “Eisner was not only ahead of his times; the present times are still catching up to him,” —John Updike “What Will did was and is timeless,” —Neil Gaiman “Will Eisner is, and remains, one of my precious idols,” —Frank Miller "He was the greatest,” —Harvey Kurtzman “Will Eisner is a national treasure,” —Jules Feiffer “Will Eisner is the heart and mind of American comics,” —Scott McCloud “Eisner is the single person most responsible for giving comics its brains,” —Alan Moore “Eisner was unique in feeling from the start that comic books were not necessarily this despised, bastard, crappy, lowbrow kind of art form, and that there was a potential for real art,” —Michael Chabon

En 1935, le fondateur de DC Comics, Major Malcolm Wheeler-Nicholson, édita le numéro 1 de New Fun, premier magazine de BD exclusivement composé de nouvelles planches originales, à une époque où les albums servaient surtout à recueillir celles qui n''avaient pas eu la chance de paraître dans les journaux. Ce qui avait d''abord été considéré comme une publication éphémère réservée aux enfants était bien parti pour devenir la mythologie de notre époque, la réponse du XXe siècle à Atlas ou Zorro. Plus de 40.000 BD plus tard, en hommage au 75e anniversaire de la maison, TASCHEN sort l''ouvrage le plus complet jamais publié sur DC Comics. Plus de 2.000 images — couvertures et intérieurs, illustrations originales, photographies, images de film et objets de collection — y sont présentées grâce à la technologie la plus récente en matière de reproduction numérique pour donner vie et relief aux scénarios, aux personnages et à leurs créateurs, que l''on découvre comme on ne les avait encore jamais vus. Le vétéran Paul Levitz, 35 ans de maison, nous dévoile les histoires qui se cachent derrière les numéros, dans des textes qui retracent toute l''histoire de la maison, de ses débuts dans le pulp jusqu''à son avenir dans l''édition numérique. Chronologies détaillées et biographies de tous ceux à l''origine de la magie de DC font de ce livre un ouvrage de référence infiniment précieux pour tous les passionnés de BD. L''édition XL originale de 75 Years of DC Comics, publiée en 2010, a été récompensée en 2011 par le prix Eisner de l''industrie de la bande dessinée dans la catégorie «Meilleure publication consacrée à la bande dessinée de l''année»!
